whiteout inode should be put when do_tmpfile() failed if inode has been

UBIFS error (ubi0:0 pid 1494): ubifs_assert_failed [ubifs]: UBIFS
assert failed: c->bi.dd_growth == 0, in fs/ubifs/super.c:1930
VFS: Busy inodes after unmount of ubifs. Self-destruct in 5 seconds.

Should this rather be done in do_tmpfile() directly?
Yes, I should have done it. Although next patch reconstructs do_rename() which makes this ugly judgement disappered. I will fix it along with other suggestions from other patches in next iteration. Thanks.
